Giant Death Robot

Giant Death Robot.
The unit we all love, not.

So I would request a small MOD to remove this unit completely from the game.
I can't do it myself, I can barely turn my computer on and off, so no skills.

I don't need anything to replace it or anything fancy, just remove Giant Death Robot permanently.

Why? Cause it sounds stupid, 'cause it looks stupid, 'cause IT IS stupid.

I would love Giant Death Robot, if I would be 10 years old, but that was twenty years ago, so I don't care it that much.

Thank you.

I love it!

I think you are officially the only one who doesn't like the Giant Death Robot.

 

[Pragmatic]

Amazingly enough, there already WAS a mod made for removing the GDR. And ONLY the GDR. It doesn't touch anything else.

It was released day 1. It's in the Mod Hub, accessed via Civ 5.

Many don't like it. Including me.

maybe you didn't see the "we hate the GDR" rage thread

It was a very silly decision include this unit in the Civ series, seems that the people who design Civ 5, never played CIV 1, 2, 3 or 4 including that kind of things.

PD: We should expect in some expansion the Mazinger Z unique unit for Japanese civlization?!

There already is a mod for this. It was one of the sample mods that were posted to give people an idea of quick changes by mods. There's also a mod that removes a city-state and one that removes Germany, iirc. Just browse mods and you'll find it.

i'd want the opposite - a whole tech of future units

 

[goddambigcar]

Actually, that'd be fine. Having a whole roster of future-tech, I mean.

But one unit? And it's called the Giant Death Robot? Lame.

 

[Louis XXIV]

I thought about other stuff, but the only thing conceivably needed would be a resource free general unit, but the unit doesn't have enough distance from Mech Inf to justify that.

I'm gonna keep the GDR in my game, but since the name is indeed silly, I'll be renaming it to Metal Gear soon, given there's a certain resemblance to the legendary mech/WMD both in appearance and sheer power.
